Retrieve Security Profiles - Vulnerability Protection via API

Chris_S — Thu, 12 May 2011 21:19:20 GMT

Hi,

We have one of our PA's set to utilize acustom vulnerability protection profile. I would like to retrieve the current configuration into XLS via the API. I am able to pull the Security rules without any issue but cannot find the correct XPpath for the Security Profiles.

What is the command\XPath to pull the Security Profiles - Vulnerability Protection - OurCustomProfile ?

https://hostname/esp/restapi.esp?type=config&action=show&key=keyvalue&xpath=devices/entry/vsys/entry/???????/???????????

Thanks,
Chris

It doesn't look like that's an option.

When I run the security rulebase export I do get a column that says which profile is being applied to each rule.

Use xpath=devices/entry/vsys/entry[@name='vsys1']/profiles/vulnerability to get all the vulnerability profiles and

xpath=devices/entry/vsys/entry[@name='vsys1']/profiles/vulnerability/entry[@name='xyz'] to get a specific vulnerability profile by name.
